We think differently, strategically, outside the box to bring about innovation and growth.

Who We Are

Full-service business development agency specializing in aesthetic medical practices and brands.

We are partners, advisors and do-ers. We are not a drop-in consultancy but a comprehensive A-Z project management and delivery agency.

We understand the healthcare industry with an expertise in aesthetics and skincare.

We are boutique in size but not in scope. We help with everything from training and growth analysis to digital strategy and execution.

We customize our work and plans for you and your business, no one-size-fits-all solutions.

OUR MISSION

Supporting physicians to develop organic and long-term growth by connecting with patients in new, meaningful ways.

OUR STORY

Pioneering a new methodology for developing sustainable and forward-thinking medical practices.

The landscape of healthcare is changing – patient expectations and consumption habits are evolving while providers compete to offer branded, differentiated experiences. DS Group was founded because we see these shifts as white space opportunities for medical practices to harmonize and enrich the patient experience in creative and meaningful ways.

We believe that forward-thinking practices provide a differentiated proposition with integrative services, compelling messages online and offline, and memorable patient experiences that fuel growth now and into the future.
